If it were a bit closer I'd inquire about it. I do love me some willow green though. I'm still waiting for a local guy to get his out of winter storage so I can take a look at it.

Also it's just outside of my meager budget of $7500, plus I would need to tack on transport fees. Since it's already priced well, I doubt there's much room to go down any further.

This is very good advice. The car is only $400 out of your price range and you're going to pass on it without even talking to the owner? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif)

If it were local I would talk to the seller in an instant, but being out of state I don't want to waste anyone's time. Besides, a member's brother is all set up to look at it and will probably take it anyway if it's as good as advertised.

I've searched all over the country and this one is something I'd love to look into more closely, but the out of state offerings that are advertised publicly I cannot move fast enough on. They typically sell in a day or two and sellers take first one with cash in hand. By the time I arrange for a PPI or travel, the car is long gone.
